His story is found in Judges 6-8. Gideon was called by God to deliver Israel from the oppression of the Midianites. The name Jerubbaal means "Let Baal contend," given after Gideon destroyed the altar of Baal.

Teaching Points God's Faithfulness in DeliveranceGod consistently delivers His people from their enemies, demonstrating His faithfulness and power. We can trust Him to deliver us from our spiritual battles today. The Role of Leaders in God's Plan God raises leaders to guide and deliver His people. We should pray for and support godly leaders in our communities and churches.

We should strive to live lives of faith and obedience. Security in God Alone True security comes from God. While we may face various challenges, our ultimate peace and safety are found in Him. Learning from History Reflecting on God's past deliverances encourages us to trust Him in our present circumstances. We should remember and recount God's faithfulness in our lives.(11) And the Lord sent Jerubbaal.--Again the speaker only names a few of the God-sent deliverers, just the most prominent of their great and famous heroes. Gideon was surnamed Jerubbaal out of scorn and derision for the Ph?nician deity: "Let Baal then strive or contend with me, Gideon." Bedan.--This name does not occur in the record of the "judges." We meet with it only in 1Chronicles 7:17, as a name of one of the descendants of Machir the Manassite, but this Bedan of the Chronicles seems to have been a person of no importance. The LXX. and the Syriac, the two most ancient versions, read, instead of Bedan, Barak. The letters forming these two names in the Hebrew are very similar, and a scribe might easily have written the one for the other, and the mistake might well have been perpetuated--at least, this is probable. The famous Hebrew commentator, Rabbi D. Kimchi, suggests Bedan is written for Ben-Dan, the son of Dan the Danite. that is. Samson. The list of Hebrew heroes in Hebrews 11:32 noticeably connects Barak with Gideon and Jephthah. Wordsworth curiously prefers to leave the unknown name of Bedan in the hero catalogue, because he argues "that in this very obscurity of the name we have a confirmation of the genuineness of the speech. A forger would not have ventured to insert a name which occurs nowhere else." And Samuel.--The Syriac Version substitutes Samson for Samuel, finding, doubtless, a difficulty in the quotation of his own name by the speaker. But the other versions uniformly agree with the Hebrew text, and in truth Samuel could well cite himself a signal instance of God's loving pity in sending deliverance, conscious as he was of his own high mission. No judge had accomplished such great things for the people, and none had received more general recognition. It was a most fitting name to bring in at the close of his list. Verse 11. - Bedan. Numerous ingenious explanations of this name have been given, but the only probable account is that Bedan is a misreading for Barak. The two names are very similar in the Hebrew, and the two most ancient versions, the Septuagint and the Syriac, actually have Barak. And Samuel. This is even more puzzling than Bedan. We cannot suppose that Samuel, who hitherto had confined himself to the old deliverances, would thus suddenly introduce his own name. In mentioning only them he had avoided everything that would grate upon the ears of the people, but this would look like giving way to personal vexation. Some, therefore, would read Samson; but this, though found in the Syriac, is supported by no other version. Possibly some scribe, mindful of Samuel's recent achievement at Mizpah, wrote his name in the margin, whence it was admitted into the text. And ye dwelled safe. Literally, "in confidence," in security. With sin came danger and unquiet; upon repentance, not only was their country free from danger, but their minds were at rest.Parallel Commentaries ...
